Best Answer

2-7yrs for most female dogs, but any dog that ends up having a c-section is better off retired after her litter is weaned.

English Bulldogs & short lived breeds should be retired by 6.

Male dogs can sire litters up until 10yrs.

Breeding females only once a year is much better for the dog.

It depends how you breed them.

If you breed them from 7months till 9yrs, well, you can expect your dog to die sometime sooner then if you breed them 3 or 4 times, between the age of 2-7yrs.

Please, don't breed your dog if he/she is unhealthy, in correct or unsound.

There are enough BAD dogs, why not breed GOOD dogs?

Good dogs are healthy & sound, and don't get dumped as easily, because they don't end up with behavior problems, hip problems or deaf, and their breeders are responsible enough to take them back.

How long can a dog live for-?

It depends on the size and the breed. Most small dogs can live up to 18 years and possibly more. Medium dogs can live up to 16 or 17 years, and large dogs usually live between 12 and 16 years. Larger dogs do tend to have shorter lifespans, and many of them develop joint and spinal problems later in life. However they are also full of life and energy for most of their lives. Again it depends on the breed.

When do dogs turn seven?

I think you are asking how many human years it takes for a dog to turn seven in dog years. People used to think dogs aged 7 years for every one year a human ages but this has been found to be inaccurate. Dogs age faster when they are under two years and slower when they are over two. Dogs also age at different rates depending on their size and breed. See the dog breed calculator link below to calculate your dog's age.


How do you breed doberman?

DON'T BREED OR BUY WHILE SHELTER DOGS DIE! Go to a doberman rescue or to a shelter and adopt. 1 in 10 dogs born finds a forever home, and EVERY hour of EVERY day 800 pets are euthanized nationwide. I agree. Although I love the breed, I wouldn't breed unless you are experienced. Learn about it but also realize that why you are bringing in new life, there is life leaving because there are too many shelter dogs. A shelter Doberman is just as good as a Doberman that was bred. ~Jessica~
